All @blakeshelton says is he likes Clint Eastwood and all of twitter is suddenly telling him his political beliefs. Geez.

Country star and “The Voice” co-host/judge Blake Shelton showered pithy praise on RNC surprise speaker and Hollywood legend, Clint Eastwood.
Many welcomed Shelton’s open embrace:
Yeah! Glad to know Blake's a Republican. Very cool. RT @bccohan: RT @blakeshelton: I. Love. Clint Eastwood.

But Shelton encountered a few protests:
“@dudehansen: PLEASE DON'T BE A RIGHT WINGER! I like you too much!” How does politics factor in to your opinion of me? #America

@blakeshelton People are trying to voice that they dont want this country run by racist, homophibic, hypocritical idiots like Romney/Ryan

So funny to me when people have egos about their political views. Calm down. Your mouth doesn't matter. Your actions do. Vote.

Let’s hope Shelton doesn’t go quietly into that goodnight:
@blakeshelton play it safe. If u r a republican, don't make it known. These vicious libs will attack u, your wife, ur music – they r awful

@blakeshelton beautifully said. You get to decide who is in office. Don't hate someone else who doesn't agree with you!

Shelton’s civic advice to those obsessed with hammering him for his politics? Shut up and vote:
To all you political twitters out there I hate to break it to u but ur changing 1 mind. So just march ur brilliant ass to the booth and vote
